During the hot summer months, women who love beauty change into new and beautiful sandals to show off their feet. If you have the misfortune to get ringworm, you will be upset. Tinea pedis is a highly contagious and recurring disease that is often referred to as athlete’s foot in the summer. Many people think that foot fungus is a good thing, because the “poisonous gas” in the body is discharged through the foot fungus, and if the foot fungus is cured, perhaps other diseases will be born, so most friends do not pay enough attention to the foot fungus. 1. Is it really detoxifying to have foot fungus? In fact, this idea is ridiculous. The onset of tinea pedis is due to sweaty skin in spring and summer, and sweat becomes a good medium for fungi, leading to the growth of superficial fungi between the toes and causing disease. Initial damage is often macerated and slightly flaky, with occasional blistering and inter- and infratentorial cracking, and patients often seek relief from itching or painful fissures. If this progresses, there may be a proliferation of Gram-negative bacteria, resulting in ulceration and exudation of the toe webs and sometimes the entire sole of the foot. A widespread acute rash on the foot can render the patient incapacitated. Interdigital chafing and blistering can be secondary to pyogenic coccidioidomycosis, leading to recurrent episodes of dermatitis, lymphangitis, and inguinal lymphadenitis. It seems that tinea pedis is not only unrelated to taking away poisonous gas from the body, but also that untimely treatment not only aggravates the rash, but can also lead to dermatitis, lymphangitis, etc. Therefore, tinea pedis is not something that can be left untreated. 2. Can I apply “dermatoprene” or “Wuji cream” to tinea pedis? The clinical manifestations of tinea pedis are sometimes easily confused with eczema, but the two are completely different in terms of treatment methods. Tinea pedis is treated with antifungal medications orally or topically, such as naftifine ketoconazole cream and bifenoconazole solution. In contrast, the treatment of eczema takes topical corticosteroids and oral antihistamines. Corticosteroids can promote the growth of fungi, so most of the patients friends outside the purchase of dermatoprost ointment after coating the foot ringworm, often aggravate the disease. 3, with the Chinese medicine foot soak better efficacy Chinese medicine can clean, protect the skin, dispel dampness and astringency, clear heat and detoxify, kill insects and relieve itching, have a strong fungus killing effect. Generally, Chinese herbs such as Fu Ling, Bitter Ginseng, Phellodendron, Pomegranate Bark, and Tuojian Pi are used to decoct the juice with water and soak the affected foot after it is warm. It is also crucial to prevent tinea pedis after treatment. Hyperhidrosis is an important trigger for tinea pedis, so patients should dry their toes thoroughly after bathing and keeping the skin dry is essential to avoid reinfection. For easy patients sprinkling miconazole dispersion in the shoes or on the feet is also very beneficial. Also shoes and socks should be changed and dried frequently.
